Musical stage version : Epic emotional hymn. Old Deut flexes his sick belting skillz. This version : POV you're being held hostage and forced to watch an elderly cat's version of slam poetry.
I haven’t seen this movie but the podcast I was just listening to also said they felt like they were held hostage so I came here to see if that was true. And yes, that is the feeling I’m feeling
You know it's bad when the actress of Victoria of the 90's version of Cats, was even bashing this movie with her review. Her name is Alison Marie. I grew up with the 1998 version. It just sounds like they pause too often, like they are speaking/ lecturing the lyrics.
this movie could have been such a good absurdist comedy, I mean: cats with only two moods, horny and confused, compete in a talent competition so that they can die. like, they're happy with the lives that they already have, they're just extremely horny for death. instead, all that seems accidental and the actual jokes are the lowest hanging fruit the writers could find: "haha, the fat cats like food"
To be fair the main "writer" is T.S Elliot as most of the songs are based on a childrens poem book about cats he wrote in like the 1930s. Still you're right and this comment made me laugh lol
Well to be fair, that could’ve been said for a good majority of the cast, who weren’t trained singers, but were trained dancers, and I don’t think many of them had been asked to sing on screen or for people before (with the exception of Robbie Fairchild). If they wanted an age appropriate female Deuteronomy to sing this, maybe cast someone like Patti Labelle or Gladys Knight.
I am going to wrap myself in toilet paper and say, I am a mummy, while only flinging my finger on a phone the whole time. I sure hope I scare some people. This is how sarcastic, I see this movie.
0:03 Old Deuteronomy: You've heard of several kinds of cat, And my opinion now is that You should need no interpreter To understand our character. You've learned enough to take the view That cats are very much like you. You've seen us both at work and games, And learned about our proper names, Our habits and our habitat: But how would you address a cat? So first, your memory I'll jog, And say: a cat is not a dog.
This scene is amazing because I say this - as someone who respects Lady Dench tremendously - I remember saying this somewhat audibly “Shut the fuck up, Judi Dench”
"So at the end of this incredibly meaningful film, you've clearly learned a lot so let me wisely sum up the incredibly profound overall message." It's incredible that the cats who are Deuteronomy's audience are basically a stand-in for we, the audience she's directly addressing and they're just as illuminated by her eloquent speech as we are.
Some parts, she would drop down like 5 registers like: 0:09 and yeah… the cgi is a little weird. If you haven’t ever seen cats, don’t let the movie be what you see. Watch the 1981 original version or just go watch it on broadway…. Just a tip of advice….Have fun Jelicles! 🐱
@@b.d6642 lol alot of the fans pair misto with rum tum Though I dont mind this victoria x misto cause everyone was trying to be with her... but didnt she end up with Admetus (im talking the stage production))
@@pikablu_25 To be fair, Rum Tum Tugger is supposed to be the one who sings Magical Mister Mistoffelees in its entirety. The writers of this film went, "Nah, eff that shizz."
Haven't seen the movie and now I don't think I need to. Good god, that was awful. How do you take a gorgeous rousing song and a performer as gifted as Judi Dench and create...that?!
Honestly this song is super fucking laughable. As is the entire film. The fact that the majority of the actors cast were dancers and NOT singers. I mean, it literally comes out of fucking nowhere, that’s how bizarre it is.
I haven't seen this movie. I watched an hour long video essay why the music in this movie is bad. Then i watched some clips of the musical. This performance is just terrible. And horrible in comparison.

ricky gervais fans are not welcome here. get better taste.
I like that this is literally the only video of the ending on UA-cam
Hahah right? I wanted to see it because I'd heard it was way way too long and this is the only clip of it I could find.

I saw this in theaters and felt like it I was being held hostage
I just walked out. I couldn’t watch anymore
I haven’t seen this movie but the podcast I was just listening to also said they felt like they were held hostage so I came here to see if that was true. And yes, that is the feeling I’m feeling
MUNKUSTRAP GOING “I f****ing hate when she does this” GOT ME SO BAD
Judi really gave up at this moment for real like she sounds like she’s going to the Heavy Side Layer herself
Munkustrap is just going through an emotional rollercoaster in the background
I like how you can hear James cordens voice through all of it
You know it's bad when the actress of Victoria of the 90's version of Cats, was even bashing this movie with her review. Her name is Alison Marie. I grew up with the 1998 version.
It just sounds like they pause too often, like they are speaking/ lecturing the lyrics.
In all fairness, the majority of the cast are dancers, not singers, and the majority of them cannot sing for shit.
You know it's even worse when the creator of the musical Andrew Loyd Webber himself hated this movie.
Alison Marie was not from the 90s version. The actress who played Victoria in 1998 was Phyllida Crowley Smith.
The way the 3 other cats look at her is just so creepy
Munkustrap: "????"
Mistoffeles: "????"
Victoria: "????"
Me: "????"
At the end I was SURE Judi was about to start another verse and we were gonna be here for 7 more minutes
I adore how there is nothing but mutual disdain for Deut until food is brought up.
Cats ARE very food-motivated!
Okay Judi Dench, I’ll buy a cat, don’t hurt me!
Adopt
Me: “this can’t possibly get any worse”
*judy dench looks at camera*
“You’ve heard of different kinds of cats”
1:16 WAIT SHE'S NOT DONE???
Honestly had the exact same thought in the theater.
I think my thought was literally "oh my GOD, can the movie be over now?!?"
i cannot believe this is less than 4 minutes
(this commentary was really good though, i paused to read it all)
The singing cat creeps me out every time she stares into me lol
Everyones looking at Munkustrap while im looking at Mistoffelees's faces. Ahh.
The actor, and the character looked so done with everything...
That poor cat on the right looks so lost throughout this whole scene.
His name is Munkustrap.
this is better and funnier than the entire movie, great job lmao
nice singing Judi.. Ken kinda did it better to be honest
Yeah, but no one can top him!
"I could be at home right now playing Stardew Valley"
Biggest of moods

@@SiiriCressey ah ok
Love how Victoria is just head empty, wants to be included. It somehow endears me to her more than the actual film
Munk And Misto Ran Off To The Jellicle Bar, For Potted Grouse, and their going to Pay with Mouse.
It's like she's staring into our soul.
A cat is not.........................................................a dog.
"well yeah obviously"
I think that's basically the only thing you can take away from this speech and indeed the overall film.
1:41 Munkstraps peed himself
Through this whole scene I couldn't stop thinking about how her face is so much lower than it should be on her head
This is only three minutes forty? I distinctly remember it lasting nine and a half hours in the cinema.
Not a day goes by that I don’t think about this scene.
Dear god....there are thousands of actresses out there who could have sung this....what the hell is going on?
Well to be fair, that could’ve been said for a good majority of the cast, who weren’t trained singers, but were trained dancers, and I don’t think many of them had been asked to sing on screen or for people before (with the exception of Robbie Fairchild).

It's written for a man.
~ Heterosexual cats, heterosexual cats! ~
I feel like I’m being held hostage. The way she licked her lips talking about food made me die I inside.

Old Deuteronomy: You've heard of several kinds of cat,
And my opinion now is that
You should need no interpreter
To understand our character.
You've learned enough to take the view
That cats are very much like you.
You've seen us both at work and games,
And learned about our proper names,
Our habits and our habitat:
But how would you address a cat?
So first, your memory I'll jog,
And say: a cat is not a dog.
This scene is amazing because I say this - as someone who respects Lady Dench tremendously - I remember saying this somewhat audibly “Shut the fuck up, Judi Dench”
their convo in the back at 2:13 took me out
this is art
I don't have any of the context for this scene, and I don't think I want it.
God imagine if we got Brian Blessed for this XD
"So at the end of this incredibly meaningful film, you've clearly learned a lot so let me wisely sum up the incredibly profound overall message."

this made me laugh way too much
so can we get the entire movie like this or
She's looking into our souls!
A cat is not a dog
What makes this even more awkward and uncomfortable is that the other cats around her don't seem to know what to do.
Dame Judi Dench does a great job, in my opinon!
I knew I recognized her voice she is the voice of 2nd Space Ship Earth
Wherein?
You know, if you chose to do more vids like this...I wouldn’t object lol.
Does it seriously just keep going on and on like that? I have respect for anybody who was able sit through the whole thing in cinemas because jesus
I lost it at the “I need to pee soon” comment
Thank you for this video. I love Judi Dench so much and no one had been a better cat than her.
Only the text disturbs the Filmclip.
A CAT IS NOT A DOG! This is fun, and beside that i liked the Movie, done 😻
Imagine this is the video message from M in the Spectre.
god, i love being heterosexual :)
What does that have to do with anything?

Why are you all being so mean. Have you watched Cats the theatre production. If you liked that, why not this version. Same story. I loved it.
There was nearly two whole hours of this?
I was gnawing my arm during this whole bit... 😂 It's just... wow.
Text pops in and out too fast.
It suxxx
Honestly this song is super fucking laughable. As is the entire film.
The fact that the majority of the actors cast were dancers and NOT singers.

2:56 sooo
I can't say I don't think she was right for the part.
3:27😍adorables
Köszönöm szépen hogy elolvastad
Legendary narration
This was terrible. The 1998 is where it’s at!
Ricky Gervais brought me here 😬
Had no idea who this guy was so I looked him up. I guess Netflix is just growing bland transphobic comedians in vats these days?
What the FUCK is this !?
wow judi dench is kinda a mid performer
I haven't seen this movie.
I watched an hour long video essay why the music in this movie is bad. Then i watched some clips of the musical.
This performance is just terrible. And horrible in comparison.
Musical? FAR BETTER. This is horrible.
No, no, no, just no.
I didn't like this movie
